Committee on Chemistry and Industry

Mission The IUPAC Committee on Chemistry and Industry (COCI) is the focus within IUPAC for issues of importance to the global chemical industry. COCI is developing new programs and projects on emerging topics. It is also a conduit for communications between IUPAC and National Adhering Organizations (NAOs), Company Associates (CAs), and individual scientists.

Interdivisional Committee on Terminology, Nomenclature and Symbols

This is a core activity in the area in which IUPAC is recognized as the world authority on chemical nomenclature, terminology, standardized methods for measurements, atomic weights, etc. Since January 2002, this Committee supersedes the Inter-divisional Committee on Nomenclature and Symbols (IDCNS). See Q&As on IUPAC Standards and Recommendations, by Ron Weir, Chem Int Apr[...]

Subcommittee on Spectroscopic Data Standards

This subcommittee was the successor to JCAMP-DX, the Joint Committee on Atomic and Molecular Physical data and the group Data eXchange. It was terminated as a separate committee in July 2016 and the standards for which it was responsible are now under the purvue of the CPCDS Subcommittee on Cheminformatics Data Standards.

Committee on Chemistry Education

CCE attempts to coordinate the educational interests of IUPAC bodies with activities throughout the world. CCE current priorities are: To develop relationships for working collaboratively with groups both inside and outside of IUPAC; To support projects and initiatives that promote and disseminate evidence-based teaching practices and innovations for high-quality chemistry education; To support both formal[...]

CHEMRAWN X - Chemical Education

Proposed Title: 'Chemical Education in Global Development: PreparingScientist and Engineers for the 21st Century'. The major goal of the conference is to establish a dialog among all parties interested in chemical education, as needed to support global development in industry. Participants from educational institutions, transnational industry and government will produce position papers forming a basis[...]

CHEMRAWN XIV - Green Chemistry

The World Conference on GreenChemistry -"Toward Environmentally Benign Processes and Products"is being organized in Boulder, Colorado, USA, 9-13 June 2001.Hundreds of scientists and policy makers from around the world willgather to discuss challenges to the quality of our environment in thenew millenium. Through discussion among leaders in industry, government,academia and environmental organizations, this meeting will[...]

IUPAC-UNESCO-UNIDO Safety Training Program: A Fellowship Program for Safety and Environmental Protection in Chemical, Biotechnological and Pharmaceutical Production

The Safety Training Program was reactivated in 1999 with the support of UNESCO and UNIDO. Dr Mark C. Cesa (U.S.A) is the Coordinator of the program. Five international Fellows have received training at IUPAC CompanyAssociate Host Companies in the U.S.A., Japan, and South Africa since2000. In April 2000, Ms. Esma Toprak (Bogazici University, Turkey)visited BP[...]

Identification of Projects of Interest to the Chemical Industry

Earlier projects include the preparation of the WhiteBook on Chlorine; this publication give an unbiased, scientifically-baseddocumentation of issues important to the chemical industry. A SecondBook on EnvironmentalOestrogens was published in 1998 as a special issue in Pure Appl.Chem. A project to assess and disseminate this special publicationis on-going [See project 022/18/98]During 1999, COCI initiated or[...]

Safety in Chemical Production - Fourth IUPAC Workshop

1998 plans to hold a 4th workshop in Eastern Europe have been unsuccessful.Plans have begun to hold the workshop in Africa as part of the 8th InternationalChemistry Conference in Africa (ICCA) to take place in Senegal from30 July to 4th August 2001, under the auspices of the AfricanAssociation of Pure and Applied Chemistry (AAPAC). For[...]

Assessment of DIDAC as an aid for the teaching of chemistry around the world

In 1998 a joint project was established with the Committee on Teachingof Chemistry and in 1999 COCI sponsored distribution of the system byits Members in many parts of the world in order to ascertain its internationalrelevance. Positive feedback led this autumn '99 to the involvementof UNESCO and, since this is essentially a teaching project, the[...]

Special Publication on Natural and Anthropogenic Environmental Oestrogens

The Special Issue of Pure Appl. Chem., "Naturaland Anthropogenic Environmental Oestrogens - The scientific basis forrisk assessment", was published in Sept. 1998, Vol. 70, No.9, appearing in early 1999. The "Conclusionsand recommendations", over the names of the Presidents of the threeprestigious scientific Unions, have provided scientificaly-unbiased,easily understood, information for governmental and othe decision-makersaround the world[...]
